    portrait and landscape subreports in one Main report...I know not possible

    I know this question has been asked before. When designing the output I just assumed i would be able to do this. I have 4 subreports in one Main Report. I've never had to do this before but I was really hoping there was some way to set it up so the subreports would hold their orientation. It doesn't look like that is in any way possible. I could run it w 4 different subreports but i don't want 4 windows popping up on the screen. They aren't going to be printing hard copies to the printer. I wanted to give them the ability to see the 4 page report on the screen then print it to pdf.

    So then i was thinking...if i could output all 4 pages to one pdf file and open the pdf when it's done that would work but i'm not sure how to do that. They are running Adobe Acrobat 9. Is there anyway to print the subreports one at a time to one pdf file?

    If each subreport is actually an independent report, can output each to a pdf and then if desired, code can combine the individual pdfs into one. Review:
